  Apes on the Edge - Chimpanzee...

  A moving story of survival and an eye-opening introduction to an extraordinary community of chimps and people. Fongoli chimpanzees are unique for many reasons. Their female hunters are the only apes that regularly hunt with tools, seeking out tiny bush babies with wooden spears. Unlike most other chimps, these apes fear neither water nor fire, using shallow pools to cool off in the Senegalese heat. Up to 90 percent of their home range burns annually—the result of human hunting or clearing for gold mining—and Fongoli chimpanzees have learned to predict the movement of such fires and to avoid them. The study of Fongoli chimps is also unique. While most primate research occurs in isolated reserves, Fongoli chimpanzees live alongside humans, and as primatologist and anthropologist Jill Pruetz reports, this shared habitat creates both challenges and opportunities. The issues faced by Fongoli chimpanzees—particularly food scarcity and environmental degradation—are also issues faced by their human neighbors. This connection is one reason Pruetz, who has studied Fongoli apes for over two decades, created the nonprofit Neighbor Ape in 2008 to provide for the welfare of the humans who share their landscape with apes. It is also why Pruetz decided to write this book, the first to offer readers a view of these chimps’ lives and to explain the specific conservation efforts needed to help them. Incorporating stories from Pruetz’s time in the field, including the compelling rescue of a young chimp from poachers, Apes on the Edge opens a fascinating window into primate research, conservation, and the inner workings of a very special population of our closest nonhuman relatives.

  Mississippi rivers and creeks have shaped every aspect of the state's geology, ecology, economy, settlement, and politics. Mississippi's paddleways—its rivers, rills, creeks, and streams—are its arteries, its lifeblood, and the connective tissues that tie its stories and histories together and flood them with a sense of place and impel them along the current of time. The rivers provide structure for the telling of stories. In Paddleways of Mississippi: Rivers and People of the Magnolia State, listeners will discover flowing details of virtually every waterway in the state—the features, wildlife, vegetation, geology, hydrology, and specific challenges to be expected—alongside many wonderful historical and social accounts specific to each system. 
   
   
   
  Interviews and oral histories enliven these waterways with evocative scenery, engaging anecdotes, interesting historical tales, and personal accounts of the people and communities that arose along the waterways of Mississippi. Part natural history, part narrative nonfiction, Paddleways of Mississippi will appeal to outdoor enthusiasts, anglers, naturalists, campers, and historians, and is suitable for novices as well as experts. Told together, the pieces included are a social and ecological history that exposes and deepens the connection coursing between the people and the rivers.

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and human-narrated by Matthew Schmitz. Originally published in 1895, Ancient Magic, Magnetism and Psychic Forces: The Key to Power presents occult philosophy, mesmerism, hypnotism, personal magnetism, and mental influence as interconnected expressions of hidden human potential. L. H. Anderson explores the power of thought, will, suggestion, concentration, and directed mental force, encouraging readers to cultivate self-mastery, strengthen personal influence, awaken psychic abilities, and consciously shape their circumstances. Blending esoteric tradition with the era’s fascination with mental science and magnetic healing, the book portrays psychic and magnetic forces as practical capacities that can be developed through disciplined thought and purposeful action, making it both a guide to personal power and a revealing document of nineteenth-century occult culture.

  Our understanding of diseases have dramatically changed over human history. Early civilisations believed health and disease were directly caused by the gods. This is why priests and priestesses were also healers and doctors. 
  The ancient Greeks introduced the four humours theory, namely that the body was composed of four fluids: blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile. Disease and illness were caused by imbalances. Treatment was to rebalance these fluids. 
  Our modern understanding of the human body and diseases began in the 18th century. Scientific observation, theories, and experimentation provided the basis to learn about cancer, bacteria, viruses, medications, surgery, etc.. 
  Every disease has a story behind it. This is a book dedicated to finding those stories. Some are funny, some are sad, some are triumphant, and some are tragic, but all are true.

  Are you one of the millions who suffer from chronic illness? Have you tried everything—conventional or alternative—only to find that you still aren't healing? Do you struggle daily with anxiety, stress, or overwhelm? If so, you aren't alone. If you're looking for lasting relief, this empowering guide offers a cutting-edge, holistic, and synergistic approach to healing—one that works with your body rather than against it. 
   
  In this highly anticipated follow-up to her acclaimed memoir Brave New Medicine, Dr. Li shows you how to cultivate embodied flow—an inner state of physiological coherence, harmony, and energy efficiency essential for optimal health. Drawing from modern science alongside time-tested methods for healing—such as the ancient Chinese movement practice of qigong—she reveals how coherence can activate your body's peak healing capacity and help you thrive amid life's inevitable challenges. 
   
  This book shows you how to support your physical and mental health while doing less, not more. As your body returns to a state of coherence, you'll begin to feel the radical effects of embodied flow, and use this inner state to find lasting health and harmony.
